Saving Changes

The DES-3225G has two levels of memory normal RAM and non-volatile or NV-RAM. Settings need to be changed in all
screens by clicking on the Apply button. When this is done, the settings will be immediately applied to the switching
software in RAM, and will immediately take effect. Some settings, though, require you to restart the switch before they
will take effect. Restarting the switch will erase all settings in RAM and reload them from the NV-RAM. Thus, it is
necessary to save all settings to the NV-RAM before restarting the switch.
